Lowry: When It's Their Rights, Media Become Tea Party, NRA Look at the reaction this week from that very same media in the wake of the Associated Press scandal.

NBC News Hosts: White Supremacy Motivates Obama's Critics They can't stand the idea that he's president. And a piece of it is racism. Not that somebody in one racial group doesnt like someone in another racial group, so what? It's the sense that the white race must rule. That's what racism is. And they can't stand the idea that a man who's not white is president. That is real. That sense of racial superiority and rule is in the hearts of some people in this country. by Larry O'Connor 16 May 2013

Axelrod Tries to Shift DOJ/AP Blame to Media "Last summer, I appeared with you, and you challenged me with the same tone, actually, on these leaks and said, ‘When is the president going to send a strong signal to people that leaking classified information won’t be tolerated?’ ‘When is he going to make people accountable for these leaks?’ They’ve apparently interviewed 550 people and went to court and got a subpoena to do what they did.
